The Libra Tour was the second concert tour by American pop-R&B singer Toni Braxton. The tour, which was in support of her RIAA gold-selling album Libra, kicked off in Atlantic City, New Jersey, on March 10 and continued through mid-summer.[https://www.usatoday.com/life/music/news/2006-02-17-braxton-tour_x.htm Music news, Toni Braxton kicks off tour].www.usatoday.com Braxton played to sold-out shows across the US, performing in venues such as theaters, instead of arenas.
The tour included a selection of songs from the new album, and featured hit songs from Toni Braxton, Secrets, The Heat and More Than a Woman. Toni's sisters, Tamar Braxton and Trina Braxton, joined the tour as background singers.

Additional notes
- On select dates, as Toni performed one of her signature ballads; she would choose a lucky gentleman to bring on stage, as she sat on his lap and sang. One of the many highlights throughout the show, and a rousing ovation from the crowd.[http://boston.broadwayworld.com/article/review_toni_braxton_at_foxwoods_resort_casino_20060318 Toni Braxton review at Foxwoods Resort Casino].www.boston.broadwayworld.com
